Be equipped, strengthened and inspired

Our hope is that, as we come together, we will be equipped to raise up a generation of young disciples who are eager to live out the Gospel in every part of their lives. We believe God is moving in the lives of young people across the Bristol region, and our prayer is that this conference will help churches join in with the work the Lord is doing.

Speakers

Helen Paynter is a Baptist minister who serves as Tutor in Old Testament at the Bristol Baptist College. She is the founding director of the Centre for the Study of Bible and Violence. The CSBV is a study centre which works in the twin areas of understanding biblical violence, and studying how the Bible is weaponised in a violent world.  Since 2022, Helen has been leading a project looking at the use of Scripture and theological themes by right-wing movements. She is the editor, with Maria Power, of The Church, the Far Right, and the Claim to Christianity; and the editor of a practical book: Faithful Presence in a Fractured World: A Church Toolkit for Resisting the Far Right.

  • Because of coming to the Y&C Conference I will now be more aware of how God might be using our young people to minister to others rather than just being the recipients of our work.

  • This year we have allowed the option for you to book on as a group!
    This means every ticket will need to be allocated to a group. Therefore if you are attending as a group from a church or organisation, you can either;
    - have 1 person from each church/organisation manage a block booking
    - attend in a group, but manage booking individually (to do this, the first person to book would set up a group and then enable others to join their group with a passcode.
